Is Orda left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

Crosswire lists Orda as Center within Kazakhstan's media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side.

Read Orda beside another title from Kazakhstan and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Digital-native outlets reorder their front pages continuously in response to reader behaviour, so Orda may look different an hour from now — reload it alongside a print-cycle title and you can see which stories have staying power and which are traffic spikes. Because Orda is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning title from Kazakhstan either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
